THE MAN WITH A BLACK HEART HAS FOUND SOMEONE TO LOVE. Theodore 'Teddy' Black might be the oldest member of his ex-partner's task force, but he's an exceptional knife fighter and hand-to-hand combat expert. He's also head-over-heels for Jenny Weathers, foster mum of criminal mastermind Wayde Logan's daughter. Even though Logan has been denied bail, his reach extends further than Black would like. Jenny and Ashley are placed in a safe house and when he is assigned to their protective custody, Black is taken off the case he was working on at a critical point. Jenny knows better than to get between Black and his job, but there's something about his last case that she knows — and Black doesn't. When he realises the man he is chasing is Jenny's brother and intimately connected to Logan's crew, Black is strung between his loyalties. The new safe house is compromised, and Black doesn't know who he can trust. He relies on the team, alienting Jenny, who fears losing her daughter. She acts rashly, forcing Black to choose between his job and the woman he's fallen in love with.
